Look closer.
These aren’t paintings. Every one is stitched entirely by hand, thread on canvas, one at a time.
Every stitch tells a story.
Each work is an original, one of a kind, a handmade heirloom that grows only rarer, and more precious, with time.
“Every stitch tells a story.”
The Reveal
Sixty to eighty hours.
Thousands of stitches.
One of a kind.
Kept to a whisper
David Poyant.
He paints
with thread.
David is a self-taught embroidery artist from Acushnet, Massachusetts. He began stitching at sixty-six, discovering an entirely new creative life. As he worked, the quiet rhythm of needle and thread brought back memories of his mother sewing in the evenings and deepened his connection to the medium. That personal discovery grew into his signature artistic language: painting with thread to capture the soul of a moment.
Three Pieces, Three Feelings
Every piece
hides a story.
A memory, a place, a person - made visible one stitch at a time. Come closer, and stay.
